Harvesting apparatus, with a supporting frame (12) having a longitudinal member and crossmembers, pickup members (20) and transverse conveyor devices (21), wherein a respective pickup member and transverse conveyor device are arranged on a first and second side of the longitudinal member (13), wherein a first shiftable crossmember (14) is shiftable about an axis (24) and is furthermore shiftable via the second crossmember about an axis (25) extending in the longitudinal direction relative to a fixed crossmember (16), and wherein a first overload protection device (26) is positioned between the first and second shiftable crossmembers (14, 15), said overload protection device triggering when a force on the respective pickup member (20) and/or the respective transverse conveyor device (21) and/or the respective first crossmember (14) exceeds a limit value and permitting shifting of the respective pickup member (20) and of the respective transverse conveyor device (21) rearwards about the axis (24).

An implement for moving plant material lying in a field including a frame, a plurality of rake wheels rotatably mounted on the frame, and a plurality of support wheels to support the frame in an elevated condition. The implement may have a plurality of configurations, and may include a merge configuration configured to merge windrows of plant material on the field surface by lateral displacement of the plant material on the field surface. The plurality of configurations may include a turn configuration configured to turn the plant material on the field surface with a degree of lateral movement of the plant material on the field surface. The plurality of configurations may include a fluff configuration configured to lift plant material off of the field surface without lateral displacement of the plant material on the field surface.

A device is movable in a direction of travel over land. The device is provided with a lifting mechanism for picking up a product from the land, and a transport mechanism which is positioned with respect to the lifting mechanism in such a way that the product picked up from the land by the lifting mechanism can be moved onto the transport mechanism. The product can be conveyed in at least one transport direction and can be deposited on the land via the transport mechanism.

A self-propelled wheel rake may include a cab that may be mounted to or otherwise secured to a main body. The cab or the main body may include a powerhouse for propelling the wheel rake along the ground. The cab and main body can be positioned between or behind opposing rake arm assemblies of the wheel rake. The cab can be configured to allow an operator to sit or stand while operating the wheel rake.

A rake implement includes a first arm and a second arm. A first linkage system interconnects and is selectively configurable to position the first arm in a travel position, a first operating position, and a second operating position. A second linkage system is selectively configurable to position the second arm in a travel position, a first operating position and a second operating position. The first arm and the second arm may be positioned in different respective operating positions to provide different rake configurations for different field conditions.
